Molex Far East South

This 5.45am, I sent my daughter to the bus terminal for her to catch the bus to her work place in Singapore. She and her friend started working there since yesterday. One of the biggest, this US company manufactures electrical and electronic components for worldwide distribution.

The factory is located in Pioneer District in Singapore. It is very near (walking distance) from Joo Koon MRT station with UMW and Union Containers to her left and right respectively.

Her position there is to do quality checks on the various components. According to her, this company employs a lot of senior citizens and her boss is very friendly and mixes a lot with his employees. He even takes lunches together with them.

Hopefully, she will gain a lot of experience there, which will benefit her in the longer term since her interest is in business.

Success

Finally I saw the test post appearing in my Facebook page.... Hope it stays that way....

Testing Testing

Now I am going to test if my blog posting goes to Facebook automatically... here goes nothing....

Linking my Blog to Facebook Pain

I want to link my blog to Facebook so an post that I add to my blog will appear automatically in Facebook. Followed some Facebookers' instructions but does not work. Now trying to link through 'Networked Blogs' to see if it works.... Praying...

Roaming in Singapore

Not the person but calls roaming for my daughter's handphone number. Since she will be working there, I went to DiGi to get the roaming facility activated for her. Since her line is basically new (6 months required) I have to pay a deposit and they will keep a copy of my passport.

Why is that so troublesome to apply of roaming for a new line when my other DiGi line has roaming and my payments are up to date. The sweet lady replied, "It's a new main line. Either wait for 6 months or pay deposit and submit a copy of your passport".

Grrr, haiyah... I went back to bring along my passport to have it done. What a hassle!

What happen to Yahoo Mails?

Sometime in November 2011. When I clicked to download yahoo mails to my desktop client, these 'emails' kept on pouring in, like nobody's business, thousands of them. Just unbelievable. It never ended so I just closed the email client. What gives?

My Daughter - Job in Singapore


My handphone rang and I answered. It was from my Princess. She is in Singapore now and will be heading back to JB soon. She informed me that she will be working, starting from tomorrow. Congratulations Jacinta on the new job.

She is someone who will go far to get what she wants. She has her plans laid out for the next 10 to 15 years. Its good she has heeded my advice to think ahead and plan ahead so she can achieve her dreams.

She wants to be as self supporting as she can and I am really proud of her. I can only wish her all the best in what she plans to do, to chart her paths, to see her dreams fulfilled.

In the pix on the right, she is the one in Blue.

Owwwh!

I need to update my profile. Haizzzzz.

Things have changed since I last visited this blog. Since I can snatch a bit of time here and there, I better do a bit of updating before i go into another period of hibernation. Just joking!

Time waits for no man, including woman.

Chinese New Year

I spent my time in Kuching, Sarawak for my Chinese New Year with my daughter. Yeah, I did get my kind of 'jet lag' on arrival, meaning, I was worn out...

Anyway, I could not really relax as I have to do cleaning up on the house. The house belongs to my MIL. As she was not around, I just did all the clearing up and washing and preparing the rooms we would be staying in.

The days went by without too much excitement, at least until my other siblings and their families arrived. Then its food food food day in and day out. Well, do not blame us as we were away from Kuching for a while and we missed Kuching food.

CNY finally came and gave us rain from midnight till a week or so later. That is the Water Dragon making its grand entrance. Don't play play huh! It was consiered the wettest CNY i knew for a long long time. We did not really go visiting except to a couple of houses. My main intention is to look-see look-see and taste the original Sarawakian food.

CNY came and went and we went our separate ways back to where we came from. We were the last to leave Kuching, that is 31st of January, back to home sweet home in JB.

To sum it all, a boring trip....

2012 - I am Back!

It has been a while since I last posted in this blog of mine. Guess I am pure lazy.

Time has changed and this is 2012 now. Time to buck up and do something to keep our world spinning, spinning with my rantings, my curses, my whatnots...

Comparing to others I considered my life OK, though I would like it to be much better than it is now. Anyway, i must not be too greedy as to ask for too much. I do not want to end up in Tg. Rambutan with the rest of those worry-free residents. Hmm, maybe I should consider that option? Nah! I still need to rant till kingdom come.

Anyway, time to go for now, while i look through what I have to post next. Hmm....
